A MUM has defended herself after stocking up on tonnes of bargains for her kids.

Carla Tarr took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share an image of what she'd bought from her local Asda.

In the picture was five remote-controlled 'Grave Digger' monster trucks, two packs of Minecraft Dungeons mini figures – with 18 in each – and a Fortnite Battle Royale toy.

Posting the image on Facebook, Carla wrote: "My local Asda in Reading Tilehurst have a sale on.

"I managed to get all this for £15.36 – they still have loads more on sale.

"Gonna have happy kiddies."

She also pre-empted the criticism she expected to receive from trolls as she added: "It looks a lot for one person to buy but I do have six children, lol."

However, lots of people in the comments section were quick to reassure Carla that she didn't need to justify her purchases.

"You don't need to justify how much you've bought – great bargains!" one wrote.

To which Carla replied: "I just know some people get funny when you buy so much as I've seen on here.

"But genuinely I have a big family, lol.

"I don't normally get bargains so thought as I did today I would share it."

And others warned Carla that because she'd got five of the same monster trucks, they were unlikely to be able to "race" them because they'd probably be on the same frequency.

"I think they'll all run the same frequency so I don't think they'll be able to race them against each other all at the same time," one wrote.

"Hopefully that's not the case though."

While another added: "Be careful with the RC trucks – if giving them to kids in same house.
